LOL. The wingnuts keep topping themselves: 1 in 4 Americans censoring thoughts under Obama

Confidence in constitutional liberties plunges further still

Editor's note: This is another in a series of monthly "Freedom Index" polls conducted exclusively for WND by the public opinion research and media consulting company Wenzel Strategies.


Nearly one American in four routinely censors his or her own thoughts "much" or "always" under President Obama's administration, and those who believe their personal liberties have plunged since inauguration day have grown significantly from 49 percent to more than 55 percent in just one month.

1. Censoring thoughts?
What the hell does that mean? Does that mean the people who are supposedly censoring their thoughts have no thoughts to censor? I think I'm missing something here. I think I should ask limbaugh what I should be thinking. Just a thought. Not a very good one, but a thought nonetheless.
Whew! Too much ridiculousness for me.

2. Seems about right, actually. Wingnut fear junkies are about 25% of the population, aren't they?
seems one if four Americans probably do censor their thoughts, cuz they have to wait for Beck to tell them what to think.
